    Re: ACL and LCL Ruptures

    I dont have any problems with extension, like I can extend it fully to the point where it feels like it will go inside out, its mainly flexion, I have a little trouble getting it flexed fully.

    Im getting an ACL brace, so hopefully I can try to play sport, as I would like to wait until the seasons over for surgery, if that would be possible or will it still feel unstable and wear down the cartilage?

    Thanks for the info

    Re: ACL and LCL Ruptures

    After going to the gym, Im getting quite a sharp pain just inside my knee along the joint line and its worst when the knee is fully extended when walking or twisting.What could this be?

    Re: ACL and LCL Ruptures

    Today I went to the sports surgeon. She said next to nothing about the ligaments, and that the pain is bone oedema, but, the oedema isnt where the pain is. She didnt even test the laxity of the knee, no lachman, pivot shift test or anything like that and basically said its all from my brain and muscles that are causing the problems with rotation, even though she read the Wikipedia reference-linkMRI.
